AI Summary

  • Extends the tolling provision for statutes of limitations to explicitly apply to statutes of repose, which set absolute time limits on filing construction-related claims.

  • Ensures condominium associations have a reasonable opportunity to assert legal claims once developer control ends, even if the statutory repose period would otherwise have expired.

  • Addresses situations where the period of developer control extends past the deadline set by the statute of repose under Section 657-8.

  • Takes effect upon approval.
